Are they stainless-steel beaters and whisk? How much weight on the Mixer? Is it noisy when the motor is on? Thanks in advance!

Yes, the beaters and whisk are both stainless steel and very well made. Weight is slightly more than an average hand mixer. Mixer is no louder than any other mixer dependent upon the setting.

Yes they are stainless-steel beaters and whisk. I would say it weighs about 1 1/2 to 2 lbs. and no it is not noisy just very powerful.

I'm 63 yrs old, very active - just moved again, after 21 mo.- & my son & I move all our belongings, as usual. This mixer is heavy for me. First thing I noticed. My 25-30 yr old Robeson was light. It had 175 watts & mixed 2 cream cheeses better than this one. I'm returning mine to the store.

Yes they are stainless-steel. The information on the website says the product is 1lb, and the box is 5 lbs. I'd agree with the others who have responded and say it weighs no more than a pound or two at the most. I know there was one reviewer who said they were 26 y/o and found it too heavy, but they probably used horrible body mechanics or something. I think if they tried to make it lighter, they'd end up sacrificing quality. As for the noise, I'd say it is typical of a hand blender.

Yes they are stainless steel beaters & whisk. Not sure on exactly the weight on mixer but it's not that heavy. The motor is no louder than most other mixers I have ever used. Its a nicemixer and gets the job done. Been very happy with this purchase.

I find it pretty quiet for a hand mixer, but it is powerful, even set at the lowest speed. If you're okay with that than I would recommend it. I'm happy with mine and I've learned to handle the power with a few minor tricks.

They are a combination the "mixer" is plastic however the "cab" is metal. I bought mine for my grandson and he love it.

I returned a Kitchenaid mixer because it vibrated badly. The two Cuisinart mixers I have had in the past two months along with five sets of beaters, all vibrated badly because the beater "fins" were misaligned with the shafts.

Not sure I can get you an exact Db rating but I can attest that this unit is pretty noisy. I would imagine that most higher end mixers are pretty noisy. Let's just say that when my wife is mixing cookie dough in the kitchen I can hear the machine on my second floor. Regardless of the noise it makes...it is a very good machine. Professional quality in my opinion.

The beaters are like two whisks, not like the old style flat bladed ones. I think it would do a fine job of whipping cream. Just make sure you have a very deep bowl because it is very powerful.

The answer is no. However, I would say that for every single mixing task that I've used it for, the newly-designed whisk-type beaters are completely adequate - and an pleasant and unexpected innovative improvement over the traditional chrome bladed-beaters. I think it also comes with another set of lighter weight (whisk-type) beaters, but I've never had occasion or reason to use those. I wouldn't hesitate about purchasing this mixer because of the beaters, not even for a second. Good luck.

I am not sure if I have had both to compare. Mine is the 5 speed and I am happy with that. What I liked most is that the regular and dough beaters are stronger than the ones I had with my last Kitchenaid.

The beaters are very secure, but with a firm push, they eject as they should. I have enjoyed the mixer and recommend it!

Never used with beaters, but they are very strong suggestion contact manufacturer for answers you are looking for ! I use my every week and are my favorite mixing bowls well worth the money

It's designed to also use one beater as a whisk. However you would need both beaters for whipped cream. It also has a single "turbo" beater for milkshakes, soups and such. All work great.

Other than the edging, the chopper attachment is all stainless. The whip is stainless; the whip snaps into a plastic piece that attaches to the handle that contains the motor. Whole thing comes apart very easily and all but the motor can be placed in the dishwasher. the mixing bowl has a secure lid that also fits on the bottom of the mixing bowl. Because it is rubber, it keeps the bowl form moving while you mix.

I don't know what they are made of, but I have replaced them three times. The mixer is great the beaters not so much.

No. It comes as the picture looks. 2 beaters. Very good ..very strong mixer and ive really enjoyed mine. I feel for the price you really cant go wrong. Im sure you can find whisk beaters for it online or take one out of the mixer and take to a local store..hardware stores sometimes stock them ..as well as Walmart..Kmart..Sears or the like.

The main mixing tools for the mixing bowl are metal. We received the food processor that fits in the top of the machine, I believe it is made from Lexan, a very tough plastic that is used in many things. We have a high end vacuum cleaner made from this material, nothing has broken since purchased in the mid 90s. Hope this is helpful.

Mine does the same thing, makes a loud clicking noise when mixing bread or thick cookie dough. Kitchenaid's response was: "The clicking noise is normal, especially under a heavy load." so it is a known problem. Personally, I would call this a design defect. No other motorized appliance I have ever used made noises unless it was broken. I may opt for a smaller model or a different brand.

I have been very happy with my mixer. I did purchase a beater than has the rubber "spatula" finish on it that works great to scrape the bowl as you mix.
